So happy to see Anhydrous called out. We booked a massage, mezze, and wine tasting and it was spectacular. Can't recommend them enough. We walked from Fira!
Thank you for your videos!!! Such a huge help!
Congrats on 10k Seb! 100% deserved
Thanks,very good information
We spent our honeymoon in Santorini last week, and both of us are wine lovers.
we visited Gavalas, Domaine Sigalas, Oeno P and Vassaltis wineries.
Gavalas was nice, the staff there were very friendly and the wine was nice also.
Domaine Sigalas had better wine, but they were fully booked so we just tasted a couple of wines at the bar before we decided which ones to buy as a gift to the owner of our hotel.
at Vassaltis we had wine tasting paired with food as lunch, and it was great - both the wine and the food.
the last one we went to was Oeno P, which was found by Paris Sigalas, the original owner of Domaine Sigalas. The lady the worked there, Maria, was very informative and friendly. the winery itself is very interesting and unique, since the wine is matured in huge clay containers.
if you stay at the northern part of the island, I highly recommend these four wineries.
Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉 for 10k you should have 1 million indeed
Congrats on 10K subs - you create great content ❤
This video made my day in the low season, thanks.
Congratulations Seb on your 10k subscriptions. Your channel deserve at least 100k subscribers with your helpful and informative contents on Santorini and Athens Greece. Hope you'll do a series on Zakynthos, its an amazingly beautiful place, and its wine tasting is much cheaper and just as great if not better than Santorini. 😅😂👌
Agree with all the points on Anhydrous. We really enjoyed it. I think it was 20 euro per person for tastings but it comes included with a tour, you can hang out there for awhile. Very relaxed fun vibe, glad we went.
I love that you use the word "cute".❤
Hey Seb.
Can you do a video on the jewellers on the island. Looking to buy some jewellery when we go but unsure of where to visit.
Thanks
Hi, thanks for the information.
Would you please advise the public transportation to go to Santo wine in detailed, and what is the best time to visit Santo wine for sunset view in early May? Thanks!
Love your videos! Thank you for great info!!! I’m binge watching before my upcoming Greece trip. I’d like to join the wine tour but how early do I need to reserve if I’m going in Oct?
I'd book 1 week ahead
@@GreeceExplained Got it! Thank you again!!! I’m so excited to visit the island❤️
Hi Sebastian.
Me and my girlfriend are going to Santorini + doing some Island hopping aswell.
I must say your videos have been really informative as you keep them short, concise.
Plenty of other people make travel guides and videos about the isles to, how ever majority of them are very self obsessed with less info, longer videos and more focus on the creator
doing activitys in the video.
Thanks for all the good info, looking forward to see the islands in a few days.
Thx for your comment !! For Scuba Diving I recommend the "Atlantis Oia" dive center :-)
Hi Sebi! I love your videos and how well you explain everything without being a long video. Could you let me know how to get from Boutari from Fira without a car? How accessible is it by bus?
From Fira, you need to take the PERISSA or AKROTIRI line, and ask to be dropped off at the bus stop "Megalochori Vedema". From there its a 5min walk.
@@GreeceExplained you are the best thank you!
Your videos are so so helpful!! Question: whatt islands can I visit from. Santorini for a day. I know Ios. Any other???

Canava has a good museum also, and ouzo! :)
No mention for the Gaia Winery there?
Hi Seb, I’m planning visit Santorini on later November for my wedding anniversary. Do you know which wineries are open this time of the year? Are they serving food as well? Any recommendations for an unforgettable anniversary trip? My researchers hasn’t been great as everything looks closed 😔 Thank you so much!
Venetsanos Winery !
Thanks for the info. I may have missed it but what is a good place to purchase the Vinsanto wine? I'm not a big wine person but like the sweet varieties so not interested in doing any tastings.
Boutari or Hatzidakis in my opinion. You dont even need to go to the actual wineries for that, many supermarkets sell them.
@@GreeceExplained Ok thanks! I see Boutari is close to where Petra Cooking class is that I plan to take.
We went to Venetsanos Winery while on Santorini last month. Our tour guide took us. (One of my traveling companions booked a tour with him before I found you on TH-cam😕) We tried four of their white wines. Nothing special for the two of us that tried them. Our other two companions can’t drink wine.
Went to Anhydrous, we walked there from Fira.
The bottle of Voudomato.. is a rose...its also made at Hatzikidakis winery and they make a sweet version there BTW, there are more than 20 wineries on the island and Boutari is definitely not the best. I think youll find it was at Hazidakis and the last owner who put santorini Assyrtyko on the map. Not Boutari. I think also you have missed the best winery on the island for Assyrtyko?
Hello Sebastian how are you?
We are thinking of tasting at 2 wineries on the same day, Estate and SantoWines. Are the tasting sessions small? our concern is because we will be driving.
Thank You
Hi Lincoln. If you put 2 or 3 hours between the tastings, you'll be fine. But if you do 2 times 4 wines in less than an hour, I'm pretty sure you'll be above the authorized 0.5grams of alcohol.
@@GreeceExplained thank you
Hi ..plz let us know any vaccination required to enter Greece...Also which site to refer for latest COVID restrictions updates? Ae r coming in mid may
No rules to enter Greece. Everyone welcome.
@@GreeceExplained Thanks..if any changes plz make a video...but hope this remains same
Another great video. Adding a trip to Gavalas for my stay. Would you recommend going to Gavalas on the way back from Akrotiri? Or coming back from Pyrgos? Which would make more sense?
That would depend on where you're staying and on your means of transportation.
@@MrBritishComedy We’ll be using the public buses. We are staying near Fira. 15 min walk to the bus station
@@grizzzzlies7208 In that case go there on the way from Akrotiri. The Akrotiri line will stop in Megalochori on the way back to Fira, if you tell them to
Patrick is right ! Megalochori is on the Akrotiri => Fira bus line, not on the Pyrgos => Fira line ;-)
Are the wineries you mentioned family friendly (toddler to be specific)?
I never asked specifically, but I guess they are, yes.
Santo Wines has a beautiful view, but that is it. Their Assyrtiko is just awful - it tastes to me like gasoline/petrol and not like a real assyrtiko. I will try the winery in Fira, as I've never tried it and the reds sound interesting too. Three of the best wineries weren't covered here, however - Sigalas, Vassaltis and Thalassitis Gaia. Hatzidakis is, of course, wonderful and I am happy his family has kept up Mr. Hatzidakis' quality
